Rejected after round two. Recruiter called personally to explain. The feedback was honest and I actually agreed with it. This is rare.
What the JD described matched exactly what the interviewers talked about. No scope creep, no bait and switch. Refreshing.
They'd actually looked at my portfolio and had specific questions. Felt like they valued design rather than treating it as a checkbox.
The technical round was hard. Genuinely hard. But they told me upfront what to expect and the feedback afterwards was specific and actionable.
Received a competing offer. The TransparentTech recruiter was genuinely kind about it. Would apply again in a heartbeat.
First time going through a full hiring process. They were patient, clear about each stage, and the offer was exactly what was discussed.
Rejected on culture fit — they said so honestly rather than hiding behind "skills." I respected that. At least I knew why.
